Great Danger which Mepaees an Unsus-

The Brompton Hospital for Consumptives.
In London, reports that over fifty peop'o
out every hundred consumptves. are victims
Of constipatsl or inactive dueys.
Consumption IS one Of our national dis
eases, and the above report goes TO prove
what has often been said in our columns dur
Ing the last eight years, that kidney troubles
are not only the cause OF more than half the
cases OF consumption, but Of ninety out Of
every hundred other common diseases. They
who have taken this POSITION, ma 10 their
claims after an elaborate investigation, ana
their proof that they have discovered "A spe-
cine FOR the terrible AMI st-nlthy kidney dis

among us, IS wise and convincing
We have rcee emily received from them a
trcsh supply OF their wonderful advertising.
They have challenged the medical profession

vesiigate Z, and those who are frank have
admitted the truth Of their statements.
They claim tia. ninety per cont OF diseases
come originally from ina tive kidneys, that

This being scientific fact. II requires only
ordinary wisdom 10 see the effect inactive
kidneys must have upon the system.
il this poison is not removed, u ruins every
organ. II the bowels, stomach or liver be

organs help them out II thu kidneys become

later on, and often when 10 Is too late be-

Zoo many me lical men Of tho present day
hold what was IA twenty years ago, that
kidney disease IS incurablc n cording TO the
medicines authori ed by their code Hence
they ignore the original cause OF disease it

They dose the patient with quinine, NOR
phine or with salts aud other physics hop
ing that thus nature may cure the disease,
while the kidneys continue % waste away
with inflammation, liberation aud decay, aud
the victim eventually perishes.
The same quantity of blood that passes
through tho heart passes through the kidneys.
